I'm warm, loving, spontaneous, generous and kind. I like talking but I love listening.
I love company and being at the heart of a party but I also crave space. I embrace change, make new friends easily and remain loyal to old friends.
I have recently changed my career (and life) plan. I worked with the elderly and those at the end of their lives and now I work with children at an International language school and through it have hosted and accommodated students from Spain, Montenegro, China, Japan and Italy. My life is colourful and varied. I have friends that are 4 and those that are 84 and I love that I can find wisdom and have fun with both! I can be silly and serious. I can read a book and disappear into my own world whilst sat in the middle of a loud club or I can dance on the tables.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to learn and live and see and smell and taste Italy... with the help of native Italians. I want to be invited in!
If you want to host me/be hosted by me, you will be respected, looked after and challenged!
If I can't travel than I want to host travellers and see the world through their eyes.
Please do not accept my request or request to be hosted by me if hooking up/sex is all you are after.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have recovered from life changing events/heartbreak with a smile on my face and my positivity intact.
I have saved lives. Literally.
I have held hands with and watched people at the end of their lives slip away and find peace. Don't often talk about these things but when asked if I've done anything amazing than this surely qualifies!
